Here is the latest understanding I've been able to gain of the danger
of a ISIS terrorist raid in El Paso out of Juarez, based on local
radio broadcast and tracking down info from local law enforcement
(or at least Feds in local area):

Apparently someone was assigned or hired to do aroutine review of
security at Fort Bliss. They suggested upgrades that needed to be
made. Meanwhile security was being beefed up for 9-11. There are
realistic concerns about terrorists crossing the Border at all times.
ISIS has expressed a desire to strike at the USA in the USA. Somebody
put all these facts together, except for the review of Fort Bliss
security and the implementation of the reviews recommendations
being routine, and reached the logical conclusion. Said Conclusion
ended up in judicial Watch, then went viral with people amplifying
and throwing in their two cents about the situation. Toss in the
vicarious thrill people get from being scared about far away danger
(trust me, El Paso is the Fort Zindreneuf of human existence in most
people's eyes) and people worked themselves up quite a bit. Besides,
who knows, it could happen.

The problem is that there are so called "patriotic Americans" who
would love for there to be a terrorist attack in the US to justify
even more intrusive NSA monitoring, and paramilitary check points,
and extending the "constitution free zone" three hundred miles
inland instead of just two hundred miles and fortifying the Border
with Mexico, and more gun control laws (see
here).
If no attack occurs, getting people hysterical with fear of a
possible attack could do the trick.

Should we blow off the danger of a terrorist attack along or through
the Mexican Border? Of course not, but neither should we allow
ourselves to be stampeded into throwing away our liberty over fear of
these attacks.

Was that worth reading?Then why not:
